I have a few videos I ripped from CDs that I’m loading onto a personal plex server, but all of them use the type of subtitles that will force the video to transcode.

Is there an easy place for finding .srt files? I figured this community would know…

    You can add subtitles directly from plex. Just click on the subtitle selection and then “search”.

      In my experience these never match up properly. Not sure how to help OP in their scenario, but I have the best luck by just choosing a higher quality file to start with since they almost always include subtitles.

        It’s hit or miss but in my experience as long as you can find one with the same release group as the video file you have it should sync up

        I’ve only added them a handful of times this way, but so far it always worked fine.
